3 Using the USB CCID Application
The USB CCID firmware is pre-installed on the 73S1215F Evaluation Board Lite. To operate correctly it
requires a PC with the appropriate driver installed to be connected through its USB port. When powered-
up, the board is able to run with the demonstration host application included on the CD.
The demonstration application is named CCID-USB.vshost.exe and is located in the “C:\TSC\12xxF
Vy.yy\CCID USB Host App C#\App\Bin” directory (where y.yy is the latest version of the firmware
release). This is a host application that allows:
•Smart card activation and deactivation, in ISO or EMV mode.
•Smart card APDU commands to be exchanged with the smart card inserted in the board.
•Starting a test sequence in order to test and evaluate the board performance against an EMV test
environment.
3.1 Driver and Software Installation
3.1.1 Installation on Windows XP
Two drivers are available for use with Windows XP:
•The standard Microsoft Windows XP driver and
•The Teridian provided driver that adds additional features beyond the capabilities of the Microsoft
driver. See the 73S1215F, 73S1217F CCID Application Note for further details on the differences
between the two drivers.
When using the 73S1215F Evaluation Board Lite, the Microsoft provided driver should be used as the
TSC drivers extended features are not available on the Evaluation Board-Lite.
The Microsoft CCID driver included on the CD is used by Teridian for testing. Check with
Microsoft for the latest driver upgrades.
Follow these steps to install the software on a PC running Windows XP:
•Extract “12xxF CCID+DFU Vy.yy Release.zip” (where y.yy is the latest version of the firmware
release).
oCreate an install directory. For example: “C:\TSC\”.
oUnzip “12xxF CCID+DFU Vy.yy Release.zip” to the just created folder. All applications and
documentation needed to run the board with a Windows PC will be loaded to this folder. Plug the
supplied power adaptor into the DC Jack and a wall outlet. LED0 should now come on.
•Plug the supplied adapter into the 12V DC jack and a wall outlet.
•Connect the USB cable between the host system and the 73S1215F Evaluation Board Lite.
•The host system should recognize the board and start the Add New Hardware Installation wizard.
When the wizard prompts, select the Microsoft provided standard Windows driver.
oSelect the usbccid.inf file located in the “C:\TSC\12xxF CCID+DFU Vy.yy Release\USB-CCID
Firmware\CCID USB\CCID+DFU USB Drivers\MS Generic” subdirectory. The uscccid.inf and
usbccid.sys files must be in the same directory on the host.
•Follow the prompts until the process is completed.
•Run “CCID-DFU_USB_vy.yy.exe” (located in the path - C:\TSC\12xxF CCID+DFU C:\TSC\12xxF
CCID+DFU V2.00 Release\Host Applications\Windows App\Bin\Release Release\Host
Applications\Windows App\Bin\Release) on the host system to execute the host demonstration
application.
At this point the application window should appear. For additional information regarding the use of the
Teridian Host application, refer to the 73S12xxF USB-CCID Host GUI Users Guide (UG_12xxF_037).
